Played in a home game last night when this hand came up.
I am in SB with 53s with a stack of about 90. A few late limpers. I complete and the BB checks. Button who hosts the game has me convered. We tend to stay away from each other. He is a solid player and is winning big.
Flop is A33 rainbow.
I lead out for $1.75. BB calls, a fold and the button makes it $5. I decide to just call and see if the BB will come along. BB folds.
Turn is a 2. I check and call $10.
River is a 6. I lead out for $20 and he folds.
I thought about raising the turn but I figured if he had a 3 he would reraise and if he only had an Ace he would likely fold. Now on the river I decide to lead because if he raises big I can likely muck knowing he has a better 3. But I thought there was a chance he might call with an Ace but I wasn't sure if he would bet again if I checked.
Any flaw with my plan and if so how would you play it?
